SUNY TUITION MATCH PROGRAM
SUNY New Paltz participates in the SUNY Tuition Match Program for select undergraduate students who reside outside of New York state.
Students from the following states will receive a State Match award to match the in-state tuition for the flagship campus in the following states:
Students who are also eligible for the State-Line Presidential will receive both awards.
*Please note that students from these states will not receive additional match money as the flagship campus tuition is already higher than our out-of-state tuition.
